Got my Christmas present a bit early from Dave. This was actually on his van but he has upgraded to a multi function steering wheel so another small upgrade for me. Such a generous fellow.
Not actually as trivial as you might think. I had to source the right airbag for it as Dave was understandably hanging onto his. Then change the wiring on the airbag so that it still fitted with the connector in my van. This involved very carefully cutting and re-directing the wire connected to the ignitor on the airbag. THE IGNITOR!! What!! I had visions of this thing going off in my face in the kitchen whilst i'm carefully cutting through the wire. For about 5 minutes I had every bomb disposal movie scene flashing through my head. Just double check the instructions on the forum -
Black wire.
Cut the black wire.
That definitely says the black wire.
OK, lets cut the black wire.
Just check the picture one... more... time... that black wire there.
A bead of salty sweat runs into my left eye just as I'm about to position the cutters. I can't see!
Click!!!!! I'm OK! It worked!!!
Certainly smartens up the cab a bit more. Also significantly more comfortable that the horrible vinyl one that was on there before.
